Breast feeding

Hi, I gave birth end of Feb. My BF journey was getting better after I had a consultation from the lactation nurse. When I got home I was beginning to produce milk however, my baby jaundice was identified as high risk and so we had to back to and fro hospital and I was feeling so burnout that I hv no energy left to pump. I tried pumping but aft do much effort I only end up with 5ml of milk and i kind of lost hope n feed baby formula. But now that baby is getting better, I tot of giving him breast milk but do you all think it’s possible since I’ve stopped pumping for like 3 weeks already.

Yes you can, try pump, latch, massage and eat more spinach/cod fish/fenugreek/lactation cookies if your milk subside. It will help to slowly stimulate milk.
